Hi everyone! It’s the last week of classes, honk, honk! The weather is great, the flowers are blooming, the birds are singing…and exams are coming. I am honestly enjoying the warm weather so much that I am a little behind on homework right now, but I should be able to catch up by LDOC, the last day of classes. I…

End of Junior Year and Advice 😿
Happy end of the school year! I cannot believe that this is my last blog post of junior year. This year has been great and has gone by incredibly fast. As with any school year, it has had its ups and downs: it has been academically challenging, and managing three jobs has not been easy. But, I have learned so…
It’s Officially SPRING!!!
Hello Blog, SO much has happened in the past few weeks. It is suddenly spring on campus – all of the magnolia trees are blooming, I haven’t touched my winter jacket in weeks, and people are always lounging around outside (especially in the courtyards or dorms). This is one of my favorite times on campus, and normally it’s a pretty…
Marathon Monday
Hi all, The best part of the entire school year was just here. If you go to Wellesley, you know Marathon Monday isn’t just a Boston thing but instead it’s a Wellesley thing. It might as well be its own holiday on campus. There are few traditions that hit as hard (and as loud) as the Wellesley Scream Tunnel. For…
Happy Ruhlman Week
Hello everyone! It’s time for the Ruhlman Conference, one of the two yearly conferences at Wellesley where students get to present their research, academic experiences at and outside of Wellesley, and much more! The whole day is really exciting—classes are canceled, there are numerous presentations by students ranging from a few minutes to an hour, a poster session, and much…
Senior Spring
Hi all, It’s officially senior spring, and things feel… weird. There’s this strange mix of calm and chaos. On one hand, classes are lighter, the weather’s better, and everyone’s just a little more relaxed. On the other hand, there’s that constant background noise of “what’s next?”—whether that’s jobs, grad school, or figuring it out as we go. Lately, it’s been…
Study breaks, flowers, and Eastern European music
Hi everyone! It’s been a busy busy busy week in Wellesley. It is time for the second round of midterms around here, so studying is occupying a big part of my time. I have been studying a lot with friends recently, and somehow we all end up convincing each other that we deserve a break or a sweet treat (mostly…
Spring?
Hello everyone! Another week, another blog of updates on Wellesley life from me. The days are longer, the temperature is now back in the positives (if you are using Celcius), and the snow is melting. The only downside to that is the fact that a lot of the sidewalks are overflowing with water from the melting snow, which is…
MarMon!
Hi all, The best holiday of the year was just two days ago! Marathon Monday, famously coined as ‘MarMon,’ is a well-loved tradition and event that will forever be one of my favorite moments from my time at Wellesley. Every Patriots’ Day, which is the third Monday of April, the Boston Marathon takes place and is a wonderful celebration on…
Spring is in the air!
Hi everyone! I don’t know what it is about the week after spring break, but somehow it is always a really busy and tiring one. The campus just feels gloomier and quieter than normal. I personally like to blame it on the disrupted sleeping schedules. But the positive side is that since spring break ended, the semester is almost over…
